Effective January 1, 2020, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is issuing "Clean Air Vehicle" stickers that permit drivers to use the HOV lanes regardless of the number of occupants in their vehicle. DMV issues Clean Air Vehicle stickers for Compressed natural gas, hydrogen, electric, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles that meet specified California and federal emissions standards to first-time applicants that have a household income at or below 80% of the state median income. Stickers are valid through the following dates:

· Red stickers issued on or after March 1, 2018, for a vehicle that had previously been issued a sticker between January 1, 2017, and March 1, 2018, expire January 1, 2022

· Purple stickers issued between January 1, 2019 and January 1, 2020, expire January 1, 2023

· Orange stickers issued on or after January 1, 2020, expire January 1, 2024.

· Vehicles originally issued white or green decals prior to 2017 are no longer eligible to participate in this program.

*Vehicles with stickers are also eligible for reduced rates and exemptions from toll charges imposed by HOV lanes.
